Two Airlink aircraft delivered a dramatic pre-match spectacle at Cape Town’s DHL Stadium before South Africa faced New Zealand in the “Rugby’s Greatest Rivalry” series.
The planes flew less than 50 feet above the stadium, with one aircraft painted Springbok green and the other featuring black livery symbolizing the All Blacks. The striking flyover paid tribute to both teams ahead of kick-off.
